Rob and I had decided we would try calling Olegs again today and see if we could get him on the phone. We had to know if he was mad at us. LOL! Plus we just wanted to hear his voice and tell him how much we love him and miss him. We tried calling around 10am which would be 5pm in Latvia. We called and got through to someone in the office who yelled for Olegs to get on the phone. It’s so funny…when they yell for the kids to come to the phone they yell at the top of their lungs in this big powerful BOOMING voice. I’d get my behind to the phone too, and pronto, if they yelled for me like that!! LOL!
Olegs got on the phone and said “yes?”. We told him it was Robert and Kathleen and he said “aaahhh, yes”. He obviously wasn’t mad and I was so relieved. We told him how much we love him and miss him and he said “me too.” Those two little words just melted our hearts. Rob got to tell me “I told you so.” Looks like he was right and that Olegs was just caught up in his game and didn’t want to come to the phone at that moment. We asked Olegs what he was doing and he said “nothing.” Come to think of it, I remember giving that same answer ("nothing") to my mom when she asked me what I did at school. Must be a kid thing. He said he likes school. We told him we’ll be coming to Riga to see him soon and he said he’s happy.
We heard Kristine approaching in the background so we told Olegs we’d call next Sunday and he handed the phone to Kristine. She was wondering why we were calling again and asked what we were doing. We told her that we were both at work (Rob and I were conferenced together so we could call together). We said that we called because we didn’t get Olegs yesterday but now we’re extra happy we got to talk to her too. She said she’s happy too which was sweet. It was a great call and it felt so good to talk to both of them again.
